Developers from Orange Labs in France developed a deep learning system that can quickly make young faces look older, and older faces look younger. A number of techniques already exist, but they are expensive and time consuming.

Researchers from Purdue University developed a deep learning-based system to automatically detect cracks in the steel components of nuclear power plants and has been shown to be more accurate than other automated systems.

Scientists used an extremely high-resolution transmission electron microscope to capture 2D projections of the nanoparticle’s structure, and used an algorithm to stitch those together into a 3D reconstruction.

Phil Maechling, a computer scientist at USC’s Southern California Earthquake Center shares how they are using the Tesla GPU-accelerated Titan and Blue Waters supercomputers with CUDA to analyze the impact of earthquakes and why and when they occur.

A group of Chinese ophthalmologists and scientists developed a deep learning algorithm to identify congenital cataracts, a rare eye disease responsible for nearly 10 percent of all vision loss in children worldwide.

Two startups are applying deep learning to their applications to make it easier to checkout from grocery stores and company cafeterias. Silicon Valley-based Mashgin recently installed their automated self-checkout system in NVIDIA’s cafeteria.
